Sleek Blush By 3 - CALIFORN.I.A Review

Ello Lovelies!

I've been on a real Sleek blush kick over the last month or
so and the Pink Lemonade Trio has yet to leave my daily makeup stash since my
initial review, its a goodun! So i thought it was about time i reviewed the
other Blush By 3 release, CALIFORN.I.A!

Unlike Pink Lemonade which featured two powder and one cream blush, this beautiful
coral option includes all cream formula blushes, perfect for the upcoming (i hope)
warmer weather here in the UK. Now i have to admit, I'm a little on the lazy
side when it comes to cream products but after pulling myself out of that bad
habit I've been really enjoying these little beauties.

Newport
Peach, The Surf, OC.

First and foremost, one of my favourite things about this palette is that it really does have a coral tone to suit everyone! Newport Peach is a gorgeous more pink toned
coral, this is my favourite of the bunch and I've been really enjoying layering
it under Sleek's Rose Gold blush (y'know that pretty lovely Nars dupe!) but is
equally as stunning worn on its own. The Surf is a lighter, more peach toned
coral that I've been reaching on my "no makeup" days just to add that
hint of colour to the cheeks. And last but definitely not least... OC, a
beautiful red toned coral. On my fair skin tone it adds that slightly sun
burned effect to the cheeks and is one I'll be getting a lot more use out of
when the weather warms up.

Peach, The Surf, OC.

On their own these
wear for a good six hours without fading on my dry skin and even longer when
layered with a powder blush. Pink Lemonade has taken a little back seat to
these cream beauties over the last few weeks and i think I may be becoming cream
convert! I'll be hooking my other cream products back out of my collection
ASAP! I adore Sleek's packaging and may even consider taking this little
palette on my upcoming Florida trip as they are just so handy to throw in my
travel bag, not to mention the great sized mirror inside!

Overall if you've glanced over these in Superdrug i really
recommend giving these a swatch, they might just be the perfect summer addition
to your makeup bag! They have great pigmentation, blend beautifully and more
importantly (to me at least) are budget friendly!
